Accelerated corrosion that targets stainless steel bolts (SCC) has caused multiple failures, including both anchor bolts on a route that a climber was being lowered off of. The same type of bolts that have failed thus far are on roughly 1/3 of all routes. Please read the "Bolts" note on the main page.

Description

Likely first done back in the wonder-years of the Dong's pre-history. Probably named by Marcelo whilst on his tour de force through the Auditorium. Definitely has seen its share of adventures.

If you're not afraid, go do it.

Location

East-facing wall of the Grand Auditorium, the obvious crack just left of The Great Roof

Protection

Followed Marcelo on this. He didn't bring any gear of the right size, and half of his pro came raining down on me once the rope went taut at the anchors. He ran out the crux over shit gear like a true champion. There were anchors at the top, so it clearly wasn't an FA.

He named the route immediately after our descent. It is after the "souvenir" a friend brought back from Cebu.
